The few projects I wrote using async Rust eventually became unmaintainable. And when things go wrong, stack traces involving Futures are impossible to understand.

This is where Go really shines. Goroutines may not be "right" or "good", but they are very intuitive, and maintainable. Performance isn't bad either.

In Rust, there's the May project that is very similar and should really get more attention.

Here’s the problem about languages like Rust, at the very beginning of rust goals it gives you all the control while offering security and performance, want some libraries to manage some these authorities no problem, but the problem here is that if everyone want to agree one thing or feature while the language gives the programmer to full control this causes fractions in the ecosystem, 3rd party vs rust core team issues and co, a single unmaintained library can deal a massive blow to the ecosystem on like Go where “The Language makes the decision for you” it gets worst as rust isn’t a domain specific language (way more than python or java) even tho it’s a systems language this brings in different domain ideologies into the language which in turn creates massive 3rd party libraries to be able to handle those ideologies which in turn causes a massive blow to the ecosystem if more unmaintained libraries pile up.

This circle will repeat its self over and over again
